PoliticsRe: Gov Soludo: Anambra Citizens In Anambra State Is This True? by onumadu(op): 9:53am On Apr 29, 2024
vanbonattel:
While I will say that Soludo hasn't performed as much as Alex Otti so far, I will say that Soludo has performed better than what Tinybu did in Lagos in his entire 8 wasted years as governor. Even Onitsha South LGA chairman is better than jagaband in governance and achievement.
What about security especially from Fulani herdsmen?
For more than two months now, the people of Mgbakwu fled parts of their town.
No action from governor whose office is less than 10 km from there.

IduNaOba:
It is a lie.
Soludo is working even more than Otti.
He is just not using the media as well as Otti is using it.
You mean the allegations about Fulani invasion of Anambra state is not true?
Like I said, the road thing is neither here nor there.
My concern is Fulani invasion.
PoliticsGov Soludo: Anambra Citizens In Anambra State Is This True? by onumadu(op): 9:32am On Apr 29, 2024
Igbo people say that whenever a child is crying and pointing in one direction, either his father or his mother is in that direction.
For some time now, a lot of Anambra citizens have alleged that Gov Soludo is an “oji onu” (meaning someone who only talks with little action to accompany the talk).
They say so mostly about his road and other infrastructure development.
The allegations about roads may be neither here nor there, but the more serious allegation with potential existential threat is that Gov. Soludo is doing absolutely nothing about the menace of Fulani herdsmen in Anambra state.
The people of Awka North (Mgbakwu etc) and Ukpo/Enugu Agidi are currently under serious security threat from Fulani herdsmen, and these are areas within stone throw of Anambra state capital.
IS THIS TRUE?
Is this fake news?
Someone please prove this wrong.
If true, why is Soludo playing dead and not even acknowledging this problem?
More importantly, what happened to Soludo’s campaign promise to make Anambra state livable by ensuring security? Are Fulani herdsmen above the law in Anambra state?
Umu Anambra, we better wake up now o.
It seems that our politicians (FROM ALL PARTIES ) have mortgaged the state to invaders in exchange for political positions.
What should we do about this?

Carlson Tucker made some revelations on Joe Rogan's podcast just a week ago claiming the so called aliens have been living with us for decades.. More likely their base is under the ocean

If we have been monitoring space for decades, how come we couldn't detect their aliens as they are approaching earth from space. Thought provoking

But regarding the sun, moon and other planets, those are something visible we can see
Don't know much about Joe Rogan, but I know Tucker Carlson and have HUGE respect for him, (his intellectual and analytical reasoning capacity).

Grateful to say that I found her.
And I wasn't even looking for all those qualities.
It seems as if the more a man looks for all of these qualities the less he is likely to find them.
It seems as if a man is not qualified to look for ALL these qualities in a woman, and God punishes any man that looks for them by making sure they never find them.
And rewards men NOT looking for them by dropping it on their laps.
That is why God is not man. cool

Sapasenator:
I share your sentiment 100%. They seem to be more laid back, natural and feminine. They will tell you the truth without and fuss.
True.
The problem with Nigerian women (in this instance) is the men.
The men in Nigeria somehow blame all societal deviance/ills on women, hence the women feel the need to defend themselves somehow.
When you say this, some Nigerian men will call you names, but it is true.
The blame is not always open. Most of it are subtle and implicit or inferential in culture.
A woman is only as feminine and as natural as men make her.
If you the man expect her to be a virgin at 30 when you the man had sex at 13, then how dare you expect her to be natural, straightforward or honest with you?
Men make societal rules in Africa, and women only follow.
My guess is that Nigerian women will only start being natural and feminine when the men stop having unreasonable expectations of them.
QED.

They are natural with all the right curves, simple, no unnecessary shakara, humble and down to earth and dem no carry religion for head like gala.

These are my criterias

1. Natural beauty with natural curves
2. Less make up and artificial enhancers.
3. Direct and straightforward with less complication.
4. Less pretense. Pretend to be holy but nack the most
5. Less religious
6. Less lies
7. Less complications


Honestly speaking, I am sold at this point.
You are 100% correct.
I also came to this conclusion by watching Youtube videos of Ghana pranksters online.
I was shocked to the bones about how SIMPLE and FREE (plus the beauty of course) Ghana women are.
Ghanaian society is about 50 to 100 years more civilized and freer than Nigerian society.
Don't take my words, just watch videos of Accra or other cities streets (people walking about), and watch Nigerian cities for comparison.
Women in Ghana are far freer (from societal and religious gags) than Nigerian women.
One can find a 60-something year old woman in Ghana in tight trousers walking freely on a busy street without problems, unlike in Nigeria.
Nigerians believe that sex is the only problem in the world. Yet Nigeria lacks all essential infrastructure.
Ghana can produce and distribute 24/7 electricity while Nigeria cannot, with all the countless religious houses everywhere.
I think that hypocrisy and religious extremism is making Nigerians miserable in Nigeria.
Ghana is a free, calm, safe, jolly-good, easygoing, civilized African country.

So I moved to Abuja due to nature of my Job which requires me online 24/7

I earn a moderate salary and was looking for where I'd get 24/7 power supply.

I settled for Kubwa Abuja in one new estate like that

I made my findings and made sure it was 33KVA as that's the Line the agents claim have standard Power supply.

So far so bad... I've never gotten 12Hrs/day Power here not to talk of 24/Hrs

Had to even get a Generator to meet up

Thinking of getting Solar by July


It's really disappointing a whole federal capital one needs to look for special locations before they can enjoy basic amenities like POwer supply.


How is this country not a shithole then?


If you can't give other states 24/7 power why not give the federal capital at least?

I've checked my meter and I'm in band B

They claim it comes with 16-19Hrs power per day

A big fat lie.


Why is it so difficult for NIGERIA To get 24/7 power.

People are fuckkiiiiing ready to pay as long as you give them POWER


Why is this rocket science for this country

Are we cursed?
It is only in Nigeria that ordinary citizen or electricity consumer is exposed to grandiose technical terms about electricity.
And yet, no light.
In other countries where things work, all an electricity consumer knows is that there is 24/7 power supply.
They know absolutely nothing about KVA, Band etc...

MORE EDUCATION FOR OUR LITTLE THICK, EMPTY HEAD:

12 Amazing African Inventions That Created The Civilized World



1 Speech

The first words by humans were spoken by Africans.

''Using statistical methods to estimate the time required to achieve the current spread and diversity in modern languages today, Johanna Nichols — a linguist at the University of California, Berkeley — argues that vocal language must have arisen in our species at least 100,000 years ago. Using phonemic diversity, a more recent analysis offers directly linguistic support for a similar date. Estimates of this kind are independently supported by genetic, archaeological, palaeontological and much other evidence suggesting that language probably emerged somewhere in sub-Saharan Africa during the Middle Stone Age, roughly contemporaneous with the speciation of Homo sapiens.''


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_of_language




2 Writing


In 1999, Archaeology Magazine reported that the earliest Egyptian hieroglyphs date back to 3400 BCE which "...challenge the commonly held belief that early logographs, pictographic symbols representing a specific place, object, or quantity, first evolved into more complex phonetic symbols in Mesopotamia."

Who were these original Egyptians?

The Greek historian Herodotus.. described the Colchians of the Black Sea shores as "Egyptians by race" and pointed out they had "black skins and kinky hair."

Apollodorus, the Greek philosopher, described Egypt as "the country of the black-footed ones" and the Latin historian Ammianus Marcellinus said "the men of Egypt are mostly brown or black with a skinny desiccated look."

http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/specials/1624_story_of_africa/page88.shtml

In his book 'Egypt', British scholar Sir E.A. Wallis Budge says: "The prehistoric native of Egypt, both in the old and in the new Stone Ages, was African and there is every reason for saying that the earliest settlers came from the South." He further states: "There are many things in the manners and customs and religions of the historic Egyptians that suggests that the original home of their prehistoric ancestors was in a country in the neighborhood of Uganda and Punt [present day Somalia]."

''Greek historian Diodorus Siculus devoted an entire chapter of his world history, the Bibliotheke Historica, or Library of History (Book 3), to the Kushites ["Aithiopians"] of Meroe. Here he repeats the story of their great piety, their high favor with the gods, and adds the fascinating legend that they were.. the founders of Egyptian civilization, invented writing, and had given the Egyptians their religion and culture.''

(1st century B.C., Diodorus Siculus of Sicily, Greek historian and contemporary of Caesar Augustus, Universal History Book III. 2. 4-3. 3)

http://wysinger.homestead.com/blackegypt101.html

To summarise:

"Ancient Egypt was a Negro civilisation. The history of Black Africa will remain suspended in the air and cannot be written correctly until African historians connect it with the history of Egypt. The African historian who evades the problem of Egypt is neither modest nor objective nor unruffled. He is ignorant, cowardly and neurotic. The ancient Egyptians were Negroes. The moral fruit of their civilisation is to be counted among the assets of the Black world."

- Cheikh Anta Diop, The African Origin of Civilisation.



3 Medicine

''The earliest known surgery was performed in Egypt around 2750 BC.... The Ebers papyrus (1550 BC) is full of incantations and foul applications meant to turn away disease-causing demons, and also includes 877 prescriptions. It may also contain the earliest documented awareness of tumors..

Homer (800 BC) remarked in the Odyssey: "In Egypt, the men are more skilled in medicine than any of human kind" and "the Egyptians were skilled in medicine more than any other art". The Greek historian Herodotus visited Egypt around 440 BC and wrote extensively of his observations of their medicinal practices. Pliny the Elder also wrote favourably of them in historical review. Hippocrates (the 'father of medicine'), Herophilos, Erasistratus and later Galen studied at the temple of Amenhotep, and acknowledged the contribution of ancient Egyptian medicine to Greek medicine.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Egyptian_medicine



4 Architecture

The African empire of Egypt developed a vast array of diverse structures and great architectural monuments along the Nile, among the largest and most famous of which are the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Great Sphinx of Giza

The pyramids, which were built in the Fourth Dynasty, testify to the power of the pharaonic religion and state. They were built to serve both as grave sites and also as a way to make their names last forever. The size and simple design show the high skill level of Egyptian design and engineering on a large scale. The Great Pyramid of Giza, which was probably completed c. 2580 BC, is the oldest and largest of the pyramids, and is the only surviving monument of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. The pyramid of Khafre is believed to have been completed around 2532 BC, at the end of Khafre's reign.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Egyptian_architecture

Sudan (Ancient Nubia) is also a site of MORE pyramids than Egypt, many older and smaller-sized.

Sudan has 255 pyramids in total, dated several thousands of years old.

https://www.aljazeera.com/gallery/2015/4/5/pictures-of-sudans-forgotten-nubian-pyramids



5 Mathematics

The invention of mathematics is placed firmly in African PRE-HISTORY

''The oldest known possibly mathematical object is the Lebombo bone, discovered in the Lebombo mountains of Swaziland and dated to approximately 35,000 BC. It consists of 29 distinct notches cut into a baboon's fibula. Also prehistoric artifacts discovered in Africa and France, dated between 35,000 and 20,000 years old [respectively], suggest early attempts to quantify time.

The Ishango bone, found near the headwaters of the Nile river (northeastern Congo), may be as much as 20,000 years old and consists of a series of tally marks carved in three columns running the length of the bone. Common interpretations are that the Ishango bone shows either the earliest known demonstration of sequences of prime numbers or a six month lunar calendar.

Also, Predynastic Egyptians of the 5th millennium BC pictorially represented geometric designs.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_mathematics#Prehistoric_mathematics

''Numeral systems have been many and diverse, with the first known written numerals created by Egyptians in Middle Kingdom texts such as the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus.

The earliest uses of mathematics were in trading, land measurement, painting and weaving patterns and the recording of time. More complex mathematics did not appear until around 3000 BC, when the Egyptians and Babylonians began using arithmetic, algebra and geometry for taxation and other financial calculations, for building and construction, and for astronomy''

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics



6 Mining of minerals

The oldest known mine on archaeological record is the "Lion Cave" in Swaziland, which radiocarbon dating shows to be about 43,000 years old. Much later on, the Africans of Egypt mined malachite....Quarries for turquoise and copper were also found at "Wadi Hamamat, Tura, Aswan and various other Nubian sites"..The gold mines of Nubia were among the largest and most extensive in the world, and are described by the Greek author Diodorus Siculus. He mentions that fire-setting was one method used to break down the hard rock holding the gold. One of the complexes is shown in one of earliest known maps. They crushed the ore and ground it to a fine powder before washing the powder for the gold dust.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mining#Prehistoric_mining



7 Iron Smelting

Iron smelting is a form of extractive metallurgy; its main use is to produce a metal from its ore. This includes production of silver, iron, copper and other base metals from their ores. Smelting uses heat and a chemical reducing agent to decompose the ore, driving off other elements as gasses or slag and leaving just the metal behind.

Early iron smelting:

''Where and how iron smelting was discovered is widely debated, and remains uncertain due to the significant lack of production finds.. [but] there is a further possibility of iron smelting and working in West Africa by 1200 BC. In addition, very early instances of carbon steel were found to be in production around 2000 years before the present in northwest Tanzania, based on complex preheating principles. These discoveries are significant for the history of metallurgy.''

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smelting


8 Religion

Greek historian Diodorus Siculus. From his own statements we learn that he traveled in Egypt around 60 BC. His travels in Egypt probably took him as far south as the first Cataract. He wrote about the ''Ethiopians'' south of Egypt.

"They further write that it was among them that people were first taught to honor the gods and offer sacrifices and arrange processions and festivals and perform other things by which people honor the divine. For this reason their piety is famous among all men, and the sacrifices among the Aithiopians are believed to be particularly pleasing to the divinity,"


9 Laws

Stephanus of Byzantium, who is said to represent the opinions of the most ancient Greeks, says:

"Ethiopia was the first established country on the earth, and the Ethiopians were the first who introduced the worship of the Gods and who established laws."
Quoted by John D. Baldwin, Prehistoric Nations, p. 62.



10 International Trade


In 1825, Arnold Hermann Heeren (1760-1842), Professor of History and Politics in the University of Gottengen and one of the ablest of the early exponents of the economic interpretation of history, published, in the fourth and revised edition of his great work Ideen Uber Die Politik, Den Verkehr Und Den Handel Der Vornehmsten Volker Der Alten Weld, a lengthy essay on the history, culture, and commerce of the ancient Ethiopians, which had profound influence on contemporary writers in the conclusion that it was among these ancient Black people of Africa and Asia that international trade was first developed. He thinks that as a by-product of these international contacts there was an exchange of ideas and cultural practices that laid the foundations of the earliest civilizations of the ancient world. Heeren in his researches says: "From the remotest times to the present, the Ethiopians [ancient name for blacks south of the Sahara] have been one of the most celebrated, and yet the most mysterious of nations. In the earliest traditions of nearly all the..civilized nations of antiquity, the name of this distant people is found. The annals of the Egyptian priests are full of them, and the nations of inner Asia, on the Euphrates and Tigris, have interwoven the fictions of the Ethiopians with their traditions of the wars and conquests of their heroes; and, at a period equally remote, they glimmer in Greek mythology. When the Greeks scarcely knew Italy and Sicily by name, the Ethiopians were celebrated in the verses of their poets, and when the faint gleam of tradition and fable gives way to the clear light of history, the lustre of the Ethiopians is not diminished."

11 Philosophy

Philosophy is the study of general and fundamental problems, such as those connected with reality, existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language. Philosophy is distinguished from other ways of addressing such problems by its critical, generally systematic approach and its reliance on rational argument.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy#Ancient_philosophy

Philosophy in Africa has a rich and varied history, dating from pre-dynastic Egypt, continuing through the birth of Christianity and Islam. Arguably central to the ancients was the conception of "ma'at", which roughly translated refers to "justice", "truth", or simply "that which is right". One of the earliest works of political philosophy was the Maxims of Ptah-Hotep, which were taught to Egyptian schoolboys for centuries...Ancient Egyptian philosophers made extremely important contributions to Hellenistic philosophy, Christian philosophy, and Islamic philosophy.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_philosophy

''Ancient Egyptian philosophy has been credited by the ancient Greeks as being the beginning of philosophy''.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Egyptian_philosophy


12 Art

The oldest art objects in the world—a series of tiny, drilled snail shells about 75,000 years old—were discovered in a South African cave.

Mariangeles:
If your woman wants you to herself, then she loves you.
If she's willing to share you, then she no send you that much.
Not necessarily true, particularly those good old days when people were less self-centered.
In fact in some parts of Ebonyi state, women did their best to get second or third wives for their husband as a way to prove their love.
Women who insisted on being only wives were seen as wicked and selfish.
It all depends on the ambient culture.
The more monogamist a culture is, the more wicked and self-centered it tends to be.

jazzman7711:
Does this really happen?

I keep hearing of stuff like this.

A whole big man will wake up in the morning, prepare and eat breakfast prepared by his wife, and she hugs and kisses him, wishing him a good day at the office.

And then he’s off to work in his chauffeur-driven posh car.

The gateman (aboki) opens the gate to let his car out, shuts the gate, then enters the house to fck his wife.

How common is this?
To answer your question: NO, it is NOT common.
But it can (and sometimes do) happen.
Why?
Because women are wired that way. ALL OF THEM.
But don't jump to final conclusion without getting the why.
They are wired to receive "male gametes".
To understand a woman, you have to look at the planet earth.
Spiritual philosophers depict the earth as a feminine satellite orbiting the male sun.
The earth basically gets "impregnated" by almost all kinds of space traveling bodies: asteroids, meteorites, space rocks, etc some of which land on the earth bearing organisms from different parts of the universe.
Many astronomers believe that that is how the earth got its living beings.
Living things on earth are "offspring" of extra-planetary bodies, beings etc.

The earth of course has protective layers/atmosphere that burns or destroys a lot of these bodies before they penetrate and land here.
But many do manage to penetrate and "impregnate" the earth, and the earth "gives birth" and becomes a "mother" to them.

A closer and micro similar "earth" is a woman's egg/ova released every month.
The ova during insemination is buffeted by millions of sperms, but has powers to fend them off, only allowing one to penetrate to form a fetus.
Botttomline is that a woman has power to control reproduction, but is wired to encourage it rather than prevent it.

That is why women when married to men who rather pursue money or career than play nature's role of getting her pregnant, sometimes stray.
The women don't understand why.
I have said here in this forum that the more "strict" a woman makes herself (to fend off male suitors) the easier she is to fall.
All it takes for her to fall is a man determined enough to woo her. That's all. And the man's financial or even social status doesn't matter at all.
I'm referring to the "aboki" example in the OP.
The best advise to give to a woman who doesn't want to fall is to tell her to marry early, and marry a man she truly loves who is also able and willing to always be available for her whenever that time of the month comes.

One lady told me that anytime she was ovulating, it almost drives her crazy and wild. She could sleep with almost any man during those two days. She currently has five kids (two of which are twins), and still going.

Once you understand the metaphysical and biological realities of this life, it becomes easier to avoid or defeat temptations (things you don't want to do for whatever personal reasons).
The mistake some people make is to use religious or spiritual tools to fight biological realities/challenges. It often leads to failure and regrets.

When you understand these things, as a woman, you can build the mental/logical/philosophical stamina/strength to live the type of life you want.
But, it would not be easy if you have already married the wrong man.

Finding and marrying the right spouse is CRITICALLY IMPORTANT.

I had to give this long lesson, and I'm open to questions.

This story get K -leg.
I started to smell a rat when the woman said that she and her husband married at the age of 18.
I also sensed sexual sensationalism when she said "My mom bleeped my husband for 22 years, got pregnant with twins "
Sound more like someone's twisted sexual imaginations running amok.
Well well...

Reading comments from people (mostly naive kids) here makes me laugh and cry at the same time.
The world is faced with annihilation by extremists from BOTH sides, and people are here defending either side.
SMDH.
Walks away to allow kids play fiddle. cool
RomanceRe: She'd Be 31 Soon This Month, Looking For A Life Partner by onumadu: 4:15am On Apr 15, 2024
TooResilient:
She'd be 31 soon.

Looking for a life partner 31 to 35 years.

She's settling up her business.

She doesn't want yoruba and igbo men because somehow she's not been fortunate with them in the past.

She has big dreams and big life goals like becoming a CEO and also a citizen of a first world country, also promised that her children will be first world citizens to give them a good future.

She's already working towards achieving that.

She's a bit stubborn in terms of pursuing and achieving life goals which some men don't like about her.

She's quite ambitious.

Not an introvert but loves staying indoors.

She's tall/dark/averagely thick/on low cut because she doesn't like making her hair(maybe if cajoled by her lover she'd make hair).

Resides between Lagos/Ogun.

The email attached to this account has been deactivated but you can reach her on lovey.dovey93@protonmail.com for a serious relationship.

No jokes or play, she wants a man that really wants to get married.
I stopped reading for a while when I got to "she is a bit stubborn".
There is nothing like "a bit" in a woman's stubbornness in my view. undecided
To me, in the context of marriage, once a woman is stubborn, she is a no go area. cool

In another note, how come a tall woman is stubborn? huh
Stubbornness is usually short women's thing.
What they can't make up in height, they use stubbornness to make up.
Which is why they turn off more men ...
A vicious cycle of sorts...

Look at how Ursula looks like now. Do they still look alike?
A persistently palpable proof that humans are perishable goods with definite shelf life on this planet.
No matter the good looks, time will take it all away. Guaranteed.
This truth should guide people, but it often doesn't.
My sister Bianca is still powering on tho'.
But time will inevitably catch up with her, like others.

Below are a list of some of the properties identified for immediate recovery.

1. The old NDDC building on Aba road
2. The mall on GRA junction (under demolition)
3. ⁠West African Glass Industry
4. ⁠Rivers State University Hostel K Campus
5. ⁠Rivers State High Rise aka PHC Towers
6. ⁠Nigeria Engineering Works aka NEW
7. ⁠Civil servants Lodge building @ Old GRA
8. ⁠Shoprite complex
9. ⁠The Hypercity land by NLNG roundabout (Estern Bypass)
10. ⁠The entire Government properties from Tombia junction to Opobo Crescent, spanning over 20 buildings.


Siminalayi Fubara has assured his supporters that he will continue to make his political opponents restless in the state.
Just imagine this type of crude greed and primitive acquisition of public properties. shocked
A person that did this should be in jail in any country serious about development.
In Nigeria, he got rewarded with an even higher position; in essence to go and repeat the same at a higher level.
